Neo-Tech: About Capitalism

The dictionary definition of capitalism is: An economic system
characterized by private ownership of capital goods and by
investments that are determined by private decision rather than by
state control. Prices, production and distribution of goods are
determined by a free market.

But most writers and commentators put dishonest
altruistic-platonistic connotations on the meaning of capitalism: A
system of exploitation of the weak by the strong -- devoid of love
and good will. A system in which unwanted goods and services are
pushed onto consumers through clever, deceptive advertising for the
sole purpose of profits and greed. Capitalism dominates most
Western governments. Capitalism, big business, and fascism are
synonymous.
